I cherish simple things in life. Exploring new places is something that I enjoy. I am passionate about my work and the challenges that it offers. In the future I aim to work as a researcher who specialises in urban habitat planning from the perspective of the marginalised populations of the country. Compassionate, helpful, and adjusting, family and friends are an important part of my life. I am currently pursuing PhD in Habitat Studies from Tata
Institute of Social Sciences, Mumbai. I am a Junior Research Fellowship (JRF) holder which allows me to support my own education. In addition, I am currently employed part time in an International Collaborative project with a Switzerland based technical University. My hobbies include reading, cooking, interior decoration, travelling and listening to music.
